Ayesha At Last

Winner of the 2019 Hearst Big Books Award and a Cosmopolitan Book of the Year pick, this modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice features a Muslim protagonist navigating family expectations, love, and independence in a contemporary setting. Ayesha Shamsi is wary of arranged marriages and focused on her career, but her life takes a surprising turn when she crosses paths with Khalid, whose conservative demeanor contrasts with her spirited personality. With themes of romance and cultural identity, the story offers a fresh, engaging homage to Jane Austen's classic.
